Records in my Department show that in 2015 the person named submitted his Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) application under the second herd number cited which is active and assigned to him. The first herd number cited is also assigned to the person named but no 2015 BPS application was submitted under this number.
A GLAS application was subsequently submitted on 12 December 2015 under Tranche 2 and again under the second herd number cited. The person named has been approved into GLAS with a contract commencement date of 1 January 2016. Payment under his GLAS contract will issue in the final quarter of the year when all necessary pre-payment checks have been carried out.
